13:40 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

CHURCHELLA shed her maiden tag at the tenth time of asking over C&D latest and she looks primed to continue on an upward trajectory. David O'Meara's charge has been raised 6lb in the ratings for that three-length success and this doesn't look to be out of her reach. Bay Of Naples rates as the biggest danger to the selection off the same mark as his third over 1m3f at Southwell, while Bookmark isn't without a chance.

CHURCHELLA benefited from a return to AW when scoring comfortably over C&D in September and she's well worth a chance to go in again given how unexposed she is on this surface. Bookmark and Bay of Naples look the chief dangers.

This can go to CHURCHELLA (nap) who has taken well to Tapeta and can follow up her convincing win off a 6lb lower mark last time

14:15 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

An open contest and a chance is taken on PYSANKA, who had excuses when he disappointed over 1m4f at Wolverhampton and is taken to get back on track. Mark Loughnane's runner was successful on his penultimate start and can resume his progress. Trailblazer is likely to be finishing strongly at the line after he ran on pluckily over C&D last time, while Graces Quest is also worthy of a mention.

It's easy enough to make cases both for and against the majority of these. GRACES QUEST could be the answer having returned to form when runner-up over 9f at Musselburgh in a slightly stronger handicap than this recently and she shouldn't be inconvenienced by moving back up in trip. Super Stars and Trailblazer are both entering 'longstanding maiden' territory, but are feared most nonetheless off appealing marks, while an on-song Liberated Lad would be a danger to all.

14:50 Newcastle Maiden (Class 5) 12f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

This contest seems to revolve around the performance of FRANBERRI, who has made a pleasing start to her career to date and this looks a good opportunity to shed her maiden tag. Roger Varian's runner was well clear of the rest when bumping into two progressive rivals over 1m4f at Ripon last time. Night At Sea is feared most after a decent second over 1m4f at Catterick, while a more polished version of Scylla can be expected back on the all-weather.

FRANBERRI couldn't build on the promise of her Yarmouth debut effort when third at Ripon 33 days ago but she had underfoot conditions as a plausible excuse and it would come as no surprise to see a better showing from this very well-bred daughter of Frankel on AW debut. Night At Sea and A Gift Of Love, another well-bred pair, are others fancied to be in the mix.

DRAGONBALL PRINCE may have disappointed last time out at Pontefract, but his form prior to that was very encouraging and this looks like an ideal opportunity to finally get off the mark. A progressive sort from mid-summer onwards, Tafsir may be 7lb above her last winning mark but she remains in excellent form, while Sophar Sogood is another to consider.

DANCING CLOUD arrives on the back of a lesser effort but he'd looked threatening from a higher mark before that and cheekpieces could bring out the best in him, so a chance is taken on him to bounce back. Tafsir shaped well again last time and seems likely to feature if she gets the longer trip, while Dragonball Prince can't be ruled out.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

STAINCLIFF didn't do herself any favours on her debut at Sandown when slowly into stride, but the way she finished off her race was highly encouraging and the step up in trip here should bring about some improvement. The daughter of Advertise gets the vote ahead of Lou Lou's Gift, who arrives with similar claims after a promising racecourse bow at Yarmouth. Ayurveda and Mrs Morrell look to be the pick of the newcomers.

There are some interesting unraced ones, but STAINCLIFF shaped with bags of encouragement when runner-up on her Sandown debut and could take a bit of beating with improvement on the cards. Lou Lou's Gift seems sure to improve on her opening effort when looking notably green and rates a big threat, while Mrs Morrell and Havana Ball are pick of the newcomers before market clues.

16:35 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

RAINBOW RAIN is in the form of his life at present and a mere 3lb rise for his most recent success over C&D may not be enough to prevent him from landing the hat-trick. Not beaten far over C&D last time out and a former course winner, Lezardrieux looks to be a key player along with fellow C&D winner After John and Spirit In My Soul, who has won two of her last three starts.

AFTER JOHN is handicapped to win and shaped well in adverse circumstances over C&D last time, so he's worth taking a chance on. Last-time-out winner Rainbow Rain is an obvious player and Lezardrieux is another one who has slipped to an appealing mark.

Rainbow Rain is on the up but may have to give best to the well-handicapped AFTER JOHN, who looked on the way back here last time.

17:10 Newcastle Handicap (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Lady Nunthorpe failed to give her best when fifth at Beverley last time out, but that was on heavy ground and she may do a lot better on her first start on all-weather. COOL RUN was only beaten a length here over a furlong further last month and, although upped 2lb for that, she may have the edge here dropping back in trip, while Nasneen is an interesting alternative if she can get back to the level of her promising debut second.

The most appealing of these is COOL RUN, who found just one too good on her all-weather debut over 6f here in first-time cheekpieces (retained) last month and dropping back to the minimum trip shouldn't be an issue. The Craig Lidster-trained duo, Alfa Moonstone and Vitarli, are feared most in that order of preference, while Chumbaa could also have a part to play if she puts her best foot forward.

This can go to COOL RUN, who showed good pace when runner-up in first-time cheekpieces over 6f here three weeks ago on her AW debut.

17:45 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

With a lack of recent winning form to rely on, it may be sensible to side with NELLIE FRENCH, a two-time C&D winner with the latest coming off 2lb higher. She hasn't been at her best recently with a seventh at Wolverhampton last month, but is coming down the handicap and is attractively weighted now. Linda Perratt has her horses in great form, suggesting Hard Nut could also go well, while Crypto Quest drops in class and may also get involved.

HURSTWOOD underperformed at Ripon last time, but he shaped well in a much stronger race on his penultimate start and can be given another chance dropped further in grade. Canaria Prince is better judged on his Southwell win having had a less-than-ideal trip at Wolverhampton 10 days ago, while Crypto Quest is much lower in the weights on all-weather and can also feature.

Urban Dandy is respected after a promising run last week but CANDY EYE has the potential to be a bit better than this level.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

KELPIE GREY only won by a neck at Ayr, but he pulled hard early on and may be an even better horse when he learns to settle. Paul Mulrennan retains the ride and his supporters must see that as a positive. Explorers Way likes it here but an added 10lb seems harsh for his success last month, while Lady Manyara is noted for her in-form stable.

The vote goes to KELPIE GREY, who showed improved form to get off the mark on his second start back from a mid-season break at Ayr three weeks ago. He displayed plenty of resolution that day and a 2 lb rise doesn't look at all harsh. Mark's Choice shaped pretty well at Hamilton and is next on the list ahead of Soames Forsyte and Unsung Hero. Vince Le Prince also needs a second look, but Explorers Way is opposable up 10 lb for last month's C&D success given his patchy profile.

A tricky puzzle and preference for STAR ZINC, who had no luck here last time, is only marginal. Soames Forsyte can also go well.

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
